Change request for UBL

["Anders W. Tell" <anderst@toolsmiths.se>]

Dear UBL Team

Please accept the following change request for UBL, summitted on behalf of
Swedish Association of Local Authorities, Swedish Agency of Public 
Management, The Swedish Association of County Councils and Legal, 
Financial and Administrative Services Agency and its Single Face To 
Industry (SFTI) initiative.

The change request should be added to the existing list of SFTI requests.

--------------------------

UBL Name: ReasonCode

Object class: ChargeIndicator

Problem statement: In SFTI we need a mechanism to identify a few basic 
allowance/charge items at invoice level, as listed below. We have tried 
to apply the current UBL ReasonCode

xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:ubl:codelist:AllowanceChargeReasonCode:1:0"

which essentially appears to copy UN/Cefact 4465 Adjustment reason 
coded, but these reason codes do not seem fit well in ordinary invoicing 
situations. Instead, a more appropriate approach might be to take 
inspiration from the Edifact INVOIC ALC segment and use 7161, Special 
service description code.

Should it not be possible to replace the code list, SFTI would need code 
values corresponding to the following ones

- AEL = Small order processing service

- EP = Expediting

- IS = Invoicing

- RAA = Rebate (or trade rebate, which is the only one available in 4465)

- TV = Transportation by vendor.

(the 2/3-alpha codes are drawn from the 7161 code list, but of course we 
are prepared to adjust them as deemed necessary by the Technical Committee)
